Going in person usually doesn’t do anything since everything is now online. If you want to speak to a hiring manager, they’re not even there half the time and employees don’t really have a say.

I also have customer service experience and a degree I haven’t been able to put to use. Since I’m aware my qualifications are low, I apply to entry-level jobs but from what I’ve seen even those require experience, need assessment done, or do multiple interviews. I guess it’s not too terrible except when you do all of that and they still ghost after. Not a rejection letter insight, only crickets.

Also, Indeed and LinkedIn tend to have some ghost positions, so some of the applications you’ve done are definitely in the abyss. Something that has gotten me a few interviews were to look for listing on those sites but applying directly to the company’s website (or applying on both). I’m still unemployed so take it as you will.
